Any feedback on these shocks? I have a 2006 Safari Cheetah and want to reduce the jolting hits when going over bumps and potholes. I spoke with the folks at SuperSteer and they recommended these shocks, motion control dampers,and a Safe-T-Plus steering control.

Hi, Mark, and welcome aboard.
There has been quite a bit of discussion on shocks here. Just try entering "shocks". or "Koni", or "Bilstein" into the search box in the upper left pportion of this page, just below the RV.NET logo.
You will soon have plenty of info to make you a genuine 'internet expert'!
Good luck.

All I can say Mark, is get the Koni FSD's you won't regret it. They're a bit pricey but well worth the money. You will be amazed how they smooth out rough roads. We now have them on our gas coach which probably rode like yours before we installed the Koni's
Good luck & safe travels, Jim

Changed mine last year to Koni's. They preform as advertized on my 2003 Knight and I would not change back. I kept the olds ones just in case but they will be going to the dump when I get back to where I stored them

Bought ours at ESHOCKS.com. Some of the best $ we ever spent on the MH.

The Konis are the real deal. They will also help eliminate squatting of the front end when braking.

I paid approx. $134.00/shock at Cummins Bridgeway in New Hudson, Michigan. The actual price was $139.00/shock, but a discount of $20.00 for buying four shocks. Figure in the discount and it comes out to $134.00/shock. I think that is a pretty good price. Bagman.
